Description

### Describe the bug
If you try to use `dnx` to run a native tool in a UNC share working directory, the working directory gets lost.

This happens because the wrapper dnx sets up for running a native tool is a `.cmd` file, and cmd does not support UNC working directories.

### To Reproduce

```
dnx NATIVETOOL
```

### Exceptions (if any)
```
'\\localhost\c$\temp'
CMD.EXE was started with the above path as the current directory.
UNC paths are not supported. Defaulting to Windows directory.
```
